Enfants Riches Déprimés

Enfants Riches Déprimés, which translates directly to “Depressed Rich Kids” is a Los Angeles and Paris-based luxury fashion brand founded by Henri Alexander in 2012. The brand garners acclaim for its punk-inspired, high end streetwear and its pioneering aesthetic often reflecting the disenchanted youth culture and the essence of the grunge aesthetic. Often frequently featuring controversial graphics, distressed fabrics, and a monochromatic and dark colour palette, Henri creates a nihilistic luxury persona exclusively seen in their garments.

Throughout the years, Enfants Riches Déprimés has garnered a cult following within certain circles of the fashion community and is known for its exclusive, limited-production pieces and high price point which further perpetuates its allure of elitism. The brand’s contentious nature, perhaps even because of it, has drawn a large celebrity fanbase, and frequently stands as a symbol of anti-establishment luxury in contemporary fashion.

Levy’s work with Enfants Riches Déprimés often explores themes of existentialism, depression, and societal disaffection, striking a chord with a customer base that aligns with the brand’s raw depiction of luxury and its examination of superficiality among the wealthy. With its compelling runway showcases and stimulating collections, Enfants Riches Déprimés maintains its position as a provocative force in the fashion world.
